Their selflessness and professionalism are the backbone of this department, and I am deeply proud to have served with them. They are a true asset to the community. Throughout my time here, I’ve also had the opportunity to serve alongside our outstanding mutual aid partners, fire and safety leaders throughout Johnson County, and many dedicated elected officials. It has been a privilege. With an eye towards the future, it is my understanding that the city administrator, city council, and mayor have determined that a full-time fire chief is in the best interest of the city.
